SOME WORDS FROM ONE OF OUR STUDENTS Registered builder domestic/commercial The Automotive Centre of Excellence (ACE) has been an inspiring experience for me. It has been a privilege to have been part of such a progressive and modern centre. I have been highly motivated and committed to give my very best and to work diligently at my assignments and tasks and as a result I have achieved averages of 90% with the help of the excellent knowledgeable teachers. I have thoroughly enjoyed the interactive lessons and classroom environment. The workshop environment and practical instruction with the hands on technology has been a fantastic experience. This has directly helped me in my work placement with leading Melbourne Automotive companies, as I was able to go into the work environment confidently and well prepared. As a result of this learning I have had a head start in the job industry and have been able to contribute to the work place by being competent in undertaking tasks and apply the knowledge gained at ACE. I have thoroughly enjoyed living and working in Melbourne and my time at Kangan ACE. Thank you for all the opportunities and help that I have been given.
